[Wien] lapw2dm error in LDA+U calculation with spin-orbit coupling.

Dear Wien users,

I attempted to run LDA+U calculation with a simplified structure of
Sr2IrO4 (case.struct is appended). I am having problem at the lapwdm
step when both -so and -orb are turned on. In fact, there appeared to
be no error if I run with only the -orb option (no spin-orbit
coupling).

I am aware of some similar issues in
http://www.mail-archive.com/wien%40zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg08720.html
http://zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/pipermail/wien/2013-March/018525.html
But my case did not involve with -eece  mentioned in the above links.

Thank you very much in advance! More detailed information about my
case is as follows. First I executed

        runsp_lapw -so -ec 0.0001 -cc 0.0001 -p

and the self-consistency loop converged successfully. Then I executed

        runsp_lapw -orb -so -cc 0.0001 -ec 0.0001 -p

but it stopped at lapwdm. The 'uplapw.error' has only one line:

        Error in LAPW2DM

I checked that nothing shown in other *.error files.
The :log file shows :
